Athlete Bio
Contact

- The beginning is only half of all. - Aristoteles

- Anybody can be a runner. We were meant to move. We were meant to run. It's the easiest sport. - Bill Rodgers

- A marathon is like life with its ups and downs, but once you've done it you feel that you can do anything. - Unknown

- In running, it doesn't matter whether you come in first, in the middle of the pack, or last. You can say, 'I have finished.' There is a lot of satisfaction in that. - Fred Lebow.

- People can't understand why a man runs. They don't see any sport in it, argue that it lacks the sight-thrill of body contact, the colour of rough conflict. Yet the conflict is there, more raw and challenging than any man versus man competition. In track it is man against himself, the cruelest of all opponents. The other runners are not the real enemies. His adversary lies deep within him, in his ability, with brain and heart, to control and master himself and his emotions. - Glenn Cunningham.

- It's very hard in the beginning to understand that the whole idea is not to beat the other runners. Eventually you learn that the competition is against the little voice inside you that wants you to quit. - George Sheehan.

- God has given me the ability. The rest is up to me. - Unknown.

- The marathon is a charismatic event. It has everything. It has drama. It has competition. It has camaraderie. It has heroism. Every jogger can't dream of being an Olympic champion, but he can dream of finishing a marathon. - Fred Lebow.

- I've learned that finishing a marathon isn't just an athletic achievement. It's a state of mind; a state of mind that says anything is possible. - John Hanc.

- How old would you be if you didn't know how old are you?. It�s never too late to excel and inspire. - Unknown.

- I can't change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination. - Unknown.

- To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift. - Steve Prefontaine.
